Flashbacks

Alliance High School rates as
favorite for the Gold Medal
Championship in the Nebraska
State Track and Field Champion
ships to be held at Memorial Sta
dium Friday and Saturday.
Besides Alliance in Class A,
leaders in other classes appear to
be: Ainsworth and Sidney in a
close Class B light; SI. Joseph of
Atkinson in Class C; Brady in
Class D.
THE BULLDOGS of Alliance
have the most well-balanced team
in the state this year. This team
strength, they have qualified for
23 positions, gives theni the fa
vorite's role as they will try for
their second successive title in
Class A.
Don Coupens, running the 220-
yard low hurdles, broad jump,
ana poie vault, win leaa me tsun
dogs. Glenn Beerline, Hubert
Shallenberger, Bill Nelson, and
John Leon are also counted on for
points in one or ' more events.
Coupens, Shallenberger, and
Beerline stand a better than av
erage chance of sweeping the top
three positions in the broad jump.
Each of the trio has bettered 21
feet.
Omaha Tech, with little better
than a four-man team, will bo
gunning for the number two spot.
Robert Taylor in the sprints,
Rlke Cathro in the hurdles. Dale
Schnackel in the half arc top
flight contenders for individual
titles, and Aaron Reed will join
them as they try to defend their
relay title.
INDIVIDUAL attention will be
focused on Hobe Jones, of Lin
coln High's crew, as he attempts
to crack Bobby Ginn's 880 record
of 1:59.3. Jones, hampered by bad I
weather most of the spring, has
turned in a 2:01.3 this year.
Class B is the most unpredict
able of the state's four classes.
Several teams will rank near the
top. with bieaks to decide the
outcome. Ainsworth appears to
have tho necessary standouts to
win, but upsets could move them
down as far as filth or sixth.
The pole vault will be the cen
tcr of attraction as far as indi
vicinal events go. Bill Black,
South Sioux Citv sophomore, has
cleared the bar at 12' 5" 2" already
this year. That is only two and
one-half inches under the state
mark held by Howard Debus.
INDIVIDUAL standouts will
hold the key to the Class C title.
The top teams will be counting
on one or two key men to carry
the load. George Witter, St. Jo
seph husky, will be the big gun
for the Josies. Witter is an odds-
011 favorite in the shot and discus,
and teammate Leonard Troshyn-

Field House Leads IM Track
Meet; Three Records Broken
With two events yet to be run, Field House is leading in
the intramural outdoor track meet with 49 points. Sigma
Phi Epsilon is second with 43 tallies followed by the ATO's
and Phi Delts with 39 and 24 points respectively.
Three records have been broken in the meet. The shot
put record was broken by Gross of the ield House wnen
i . j r.t t Un TW TV Tviarlr 1 1 irnrH in
he tossed the iron ball 134 feet
10 inches. He beat the old record
holder, Charlie Toogood, Phi Delt,
who tinned in a heave of 130
feet, 6 inches.
The 880 relay mark was low
ered by the Sig Eps as the team
of Drooker, Cole, Freeman and
Alexander ran the half mile in
1:35.7. This time is one and five-
tenths of a second bettor than the
old record posted by Delta Up
silon last year.
The Sig Eps got their second
record of the meet in the 440-
vard relav. The same team which
won the 830-yard relay in record
time chopped one-tenth of a sec
ski should pick up vital points in
the 880.
Irving Thode in the broad jump
and high jump, and Hal DeGarmo
in the hurdles, should pull down
enough points to boost their
teams, Loup City and Trenton re
spectively, to a high position in
the final tabulations. Thode, how
ever, has been in the hospital the
past week and may not be in top
condition.
Dark horse in the C ratings is
Arapahoe. Hoppy McCue, a soph
omore, will carry the load, com
peting in five events. McCue is
listed for the 100, 220, broad
jump, high jump, and pole vault.
